THE DECODER RING: May 2007

This group just keeps getting better and better. Watch out! God is moving!

THE DECODER RING screened one of the most popular films of all time, Geroge Lucas' original STAR WARS. We were transported back to that galaxy (far, far away from CGI enhancements) to the hot, desolate deserts of Tatooine, the cold grip of the Death Star, and the new hope of the Rebellion. We enjoyed the story of a young farm boy who believed he was meant for something greater; and met a spiritual mentor that helped him achieve an incredible victory. He learned to have faith, and only when he "let go" did he truly make a difference.

We saw how a near-fatal accident changed George Lucas' direction and how he has worked to fulfill that purpose in his life. We learned that the timeless elements found in STAR WARS come from the legends and stories that have weaved throughout all of human history. Mr. Lucas tapped into the common threads all of these tales share, and crafted a saga that literally changed movies forever. We discovered his inspiration from the films of Akira Kurosawa, and the writings of Joseph Campbell. And we celebrated the landmark achievements of his ratty band of misfits who became the industry leaders in visual effects and sound design.

At the end of of our time, we prayed for George Lucas, his children, producer Gary Kurtz, and the stars of the film, Mark, Carrie and Harrison. We lifted them up to the Lord and asked that He reveal himself to them and that He would work powerfully in their lives. God will cause amazing breakthroughs. Just wait and see.

Please join us for the next meeting of THE DECODER RING, hopefully toward the end of June. Take care, God bless... and May the LORD Be With You! :-)
